I've been sipping on this for the last half-hour or so and the effects are just rippling across my tongue. It's a blend of Pinot Gris (51%), Riesling (40%) and GewÃ¼rtztraminer (9%). On the nose, I can pick out the Riesling a bit more than the other two varietals, although I admit I'm much less familiar with Pinot Gris and GewÃ¼rtz. In your mouth, the three grapes taste like they've been working together throughout time ... beautiful round citrus fruit along with some apple and pear, enough acid to keep a balance, pleasantly spicy and hot on the long finish. A mineral component as well. We were serving this by the glass at Trio; after tasting it I had to run to the store to get a couple bottles for myself.
